Software Installation
Especially, the hard copy of all parameters programmed can be obtained via the Convert feature. This feature will consolidate all programmable parameters for a certain application and print it out via your printer linked with the PC. This hard copy, then, can be filed for future reference or can be used in the field where no PC is available.
PowerTool comes with the PowerTool Kit which includes the necessary cable sets, operation briefing and software delivered in CD ROM or floppy format. You will find the PowerTool has been delivered in a self-extracted file format. It includes all the necessary installation files to build a complete running program. When you put the self-extracted file into a pre-built subdirectory and execute this file, those installation files will be retrieved into this subdirectory immediately. Then you have to run the SETUP.EXE and follow the screen instruction to complete the installation of FuzzyScan PowerTool.
Configuration Download and Upload The Download and Upload functions will let you see what the device is programmed for. Also you can retrieve (upload) the configurations from FuzzyScan or send (download) the configurations to FuzzyScan. Of course, to duplicate preset configurations will be easy as 1-2-3.
After the installation procedure, a new FuzzyScan group folder will be added into the program menu, then you are ready to use the PowerTool.
Program Field Upgrade Internal program (firmware) change or modification is only one step away via the Field Upgrade feature of the utility. This is what we called “ Investment Guaranty “ for all of the FuzzyScan universal models.
On-screen Configuration Compared with the traditional configuration done via bar code menu readings, PowerTool will provide you a GUI interface to configure the FuzzyScan Universal Models easily. All configurations can be saved as a file format or convert to hard copy of print out for management convenience.
On-Site Field Diagnostic You can perform Diagnostic to verify if the communication between your FuzzyScan and Host system is normal, and the buzzer and indicator light is working correctly.

The DataWizard Condensed Version has been embedded in all FuzzyScan family. You can get those desired functions via scanning bar code menu. The Full-Feature DataWizard is only available for FuzzyScan
Gold/Jade/Diamond series (Universal Models), and must be configured through the PowerTool for advanced requirements. It will give you the freedom of modifying the scanned data anyway you like, and allow you to integrate the FuzzyScan Universal Models into any existing applications. Briefing The ultra powerful data editing functions provided by DataWizard are controlled by user definable Rule. Through independent rules, users can easily get following functionality: General Transmission Control The available parameters include “Preamble”, “Postamble”, “Suffix”, “Symbol ID and Data Length Transmission” and 3-5
Configure Your FuzzyScan
Advanced Data Verification User can base on the desired Bar Code Symbologies to select “Valid ASCII Domain”, “Valid Data Length Domain” and “Matched Data Value” to establish any desired filtering algorithm. This feature is not only to provide on-scanner data filter without application software modification, but also can reduce the error reading rate and improve data capture reliability. Field Oriented Data Formatter The Field Oriented Data Formatter allows user to flexibly divide scanned data by “Delimiter” or “Length”. To use with “Added Field” and “Transmission Sequence Arrangement” features, user can implement “Insert”, “Delete”, “Replace”, “Re-organize” and other data editing capabilities beyond your imagination. If you can’t understand the actual operation of DataWizard, please consult your vendor or visit our web site for details. Then you will enjoy the wonderful tool on hand. http://www.htz.com.tw

Configure Your FuzzyScan
Bar Code Programming Menu System Command
The FuzzyScan bar code commands are specially designed Proprietary bar code labels which allow you to set the FuzzyScan internal programming parameters. There are System Command, Family Code and Option Code for programming purpose.
The System Command is the highest level bar code command which directs FuzzyScan to perform immediate operations, such as entering programming mode (PROGRAM), exiting programming mode (EXIT), listing system information (SYSLIST), recovering to factory preset configurations (M_DEFAULT/G_DEFAULT), and so on. Please note that all system commands will take a few seconds to complete the operations. User must wait for the completion beeps before scanning another bar code.
Each programmable family and bar code command label is listed on the same page with major system commands. The detailed explanations and special programming flowchart are printed on facing or following pages. You can read the explanation and set the FuzzyScan concurrently.
Family Code
A supplemental bar code command menu incorporates the bar code command labels of System Command and Option Code. As you set the FuzzyScan, open the bar code command menu to find the option code page. You may scan the desired family code and option code to set FuzzyScan. If you want to change the programming family for multiple settings, you need only turn over the programming page to find next desired programming family.
The Family Code is scanned to select the user desired programming family. FuzzyScan has already provided more than one hundred programming families to meet any specific requirements. Option Code The Option Codes is a set of bar code commands represented by “0–9”, “A–F” and finishing selection (FIN). For most setting, you must select at least one option code following the family code selection to set the desired parameter for the selected programming family. 3-8
Configure Your FuzzyScan
Programming Procedures
If the programming family must take multiple scans selection, cycling scan selection, or dual level selection procedures, the family of the programming menu will be marked with the matched representing symbol of Programming Category (P.C.) in bold font listed in the following table. You can easily find the bold mark in the programming menu, and refer to their flowcharts for details. Before setting the FuzzyScan, please also refer to the “Beeping Indications” listed in Appendix to understand the details of programming beeping indications. It will be very helpful for you to know the existing status while you are programming the FuzzyScan.
As you scan the bar code command to select the desired parameters, information about the final selected parameters represented by the bar code commands are stored in the FuzzyScan’s internal Flash Memory ASIC or non-volatile memory. If you turn off the unit, the Flash Memory ASIC or non-volatile memory retains all programming options. You need not re-program the FuzzyScan if you want to keep the existing configurations in the next power on. The programming procedures of FuzzyScan are designed as simple as possible for ease of setting. Most programming families take the Single Scan Selection programming procedure. But several programming families have more complex and flexible programmable options, and you must take Multiple Scans Selection, Cycling Scan Selection or Dual Level Selection to complete their programming procedures. Each kind of programming procedure is listed in the following pages for your reference. Please give careful attention to become familiar with each programming procedure. However, if you are the user of FuzzyScan Gold/Jade/Diamond series scanners, you are encouraged to use the PowerTool for convenience.

The FuzzyScan can decode almost all Code 25 symbologies automatically. But we recommend that you select only one kind of Code 25 for reading, or set limited maximum and minimum reading length for reading, because the encoding algorithm of Code 25 isn’t very good. To decode all Code 25 automatically or to read variable length Code 25 will increase the error reading rate.

Character Frame Control is used to adjust timing gap between bytes within one character data output by FuzzyScan. Intercharacter Delay is a time delay between data characters output by FuzzyScan. These two parameters are used to synchronize data communication when : 1) the data transmission speed is too fast, characters may be skipped; 2) multitasking operation system or host computers in a network may slow down the keyboard handling; 3) various notebook or desktop PC systems require different timing parameter settings. Please always add one extra unit as safty margin when adjusting these two parameters. Intermessage Delay is a time delay between messages output by FuzzyScan. Increasing this delay will help host applications process the incoming data on time. The function of “Caps Lock Control” and “Key Pad Emulation” are only available for IBM PC/AT, PS/VP, PS/2 series personal computers and compatible machines. While selecting the other host interfaces, these selections don’t perform the above functions for you. Please check the actual Caps Lock stste in use while software application is running. If the Caps Lock stste is off, select “Caps Lock Off” state, then FuzzyScan will perform normal data transmission. If the Caps Lock state is on, select “Caps Lock On” state. Select “Auto Detect”, FuzzyScan will perform special transmission handshaking without changing the status of Caps Lock switch.

When the RTS/CTS Hardware Handshaking option is selected, the RTS (request to send) and CTS (clear to send) signals will be issued before normal data communication. This option is very helpful to ensure the reliability of data communication. When the ACK/NAK Software Handshaking option is selected, the FuzzyScan waits for an ACK (acknowledge) or NAK (not acknowledge) from the host computer after each data transmission. If the NAK is received, FuzzyScan will re-send the data until receiving ACK. TheTime Out Control is a pre-defined delay time for FuzzyScan to wait for handshaking, acknowledgment or non-acknowledgment from the host computer.

You can select one or all types of bar code symbologies to use Condensed DataWizard for advanced transmission arrangement. If you scan “00” to select all types, the FuzzyScan will arrange all incoming data to meet your pre-defined format. if you want to select only one type bar code, please select one of the option code listed below.
If your bar code label is a 16-digit Interleaved 2 of 5 which includes the information of 6-digit date code, 6-digit serial number and 4-digit unit price, you want the FuzzyScan do the following for you without software modification:
UPC-E : 03 UPC-A : 02 EAN/CAN/JAN-8 : 05 EAN/CAN/JAN-13 : 04 Code 32 : 07
Telepen : 13 Code 128 : 01 UCC/EAN 128 : 01 Code 39 : 07 Code 93 : 09
Apply only Interleaved 2 of 5 to the condensed DataWizard. Check bar code is actually with 16-digit length.
Codabar/NW-7 : 06 Code 25 Family : 08 Code 11 : 10 UK/Plessey : 12 MSI/Plessey : 11
Allow bar code output whose date code is leading with “9”. Three outputs with “TAB” suffix. The date code output should skip “9” and replaced it by “A”. The serial number output should be led with “SN”.
Position Calculation
The unit price output should be skipped the first 2 digits.

AC Power Adapters
Power-stealer Cable
FuzzyScan only can accept the Regulated 5VDC inlet. If you hope to acquire an AC power adapter locally, please ensure the Outlet of the AC power adapters is Regulated 5VDC. For all power adapters not listed below, you are encouraged to use the power-stealer cables to take power from the keyboard port of your PC system.
The Power-stealer Cable is specially designed to provide the Regulated 5VDC outlet directly from Keyboard Port, and still allows the keyboard to work with host machine.
Illustration
For most RS-232 serial applications, the host machines didn’t provide the direct power source. If your host computers do have the compatible PC/AT or PS/2 keyboard port, you are encouraged to use one of the following Power-stealer Cables for convenience.
